The cleanliness and the staff at this hotel will keep you coming back. The view from a suite, of Main Street and the harbor will make you not want to leave. The hotel is located in the center of town, so it is perfect for exploring the island.

We chose the Lilac Tree based on availability and reviews. We stayed 3 nights in suite 406, the room was huge, very clean and the view from the fourth floor balcony of Main street and the sunrises over the harbor were even better. Our experience there was wonderful and the employees were great. It was my wifes first time on the island and she loved it and did'nt want to leave.

Room Tip: Spend the extra money and get a suite with a balcony on the top floors, they have a great view of Ma...

Chose the Lilac Tree based on reviews and availability. What a fantastic experience! Location was excellent, suite was where the WOW! came from and the staff was outstanding. We had room 204 and it was decorated beautifully, the balcony overlooked Main Street and the water. The whole place far exceeded our expectations. Clean, bright, comfortable. Would absolutely stay here again. Only minor downside was wifi access. Couldn't access in the room, but it was fine out in the hallway - which was a minor inconvenience but workable for what we needed. The staff was great and held our bags as we got to the island early so we could look around. Archie brought up our bags and was incredibly energetic and helpful with anything we may have needed. He even brought our bags over from Shepler's to our second hotel when we decided on a whim to stay another night on the island. Would have loved to stay at the Lilac Tree but they didn't have any availability that night. Would definitely stay there again. Great experience.

We stayed two nights at this hotel! The hotel was modern with that old world charm. Our suite was very big. The hotel was very clean. Our balcony overlooked Main Street. It was a great escape from our busy world.

We went to the Island for a few days to celebrate a birthday. We stayed at the Lilac Tree and it definitely added to the experience. The location is terrific. You are right in the center of town, walking distance to everything. Our suite was on the top floor we had a wonderful view. The suite was spacious. Loved have a living room and bedroom plus a great balcony! Would stay there again in a minute!

Room Tip: Room 402 was great. King bed, nice view, away from elevator and at the end of the hall.

My parents and I all traveled to Mackinac Island recently (our first trip) and stayed two nights at the Lilac Tree Suites. We had a suite on the top floor (4th) which entailed a bedroom first with 2 queen beds, dresser, closet and TV, then a bathroom area with 2 sinks and seperate toilet/shower room and then a living room with a table and chairs (for playing cards or having a meal), couch, chair, sink, fridge and mircowave and of course TV. Then a french door going out to a small balcony on which we could see the lake above the buildings across the street. The building is located in the middle of the main drag, completely walkable to shops and restaurants. All the buildings on the island are old as is this hotel. But it is nice, clean, quiet and furnished in the victorian style. On the street level of the building is a covered courtyard with several shops and benches for sitting. Yes there are bats but like the other reviewer they are all over the island. I don't like them but they did not hamper my stay in any way. They have a great staff. Everyone we encountered was very friendly and pleasant. We had a bicycle porter, Archie who met us at he ferry dock and bought our luggage to the hotel for us. We had two maids come each evening at about 8pm with milk, cookies and chocolates with the offer of turn down service. My favorite part of the suite was to go out on the deck early in the morning and watch the city come to life and to see the freighters come right by the island and down Lake Huron. It was a great place to stay and worth the money in our opinion.

Room Tip: Spend the extra and get the top floor with a balcony

Both my husband & I enjoyed our time on Mackinac, but realized we don't need to go again, and one night is enough. The Lilac Tree is very clean, comfortable and sweet. Very feminine decor and all very nice.
